RE: Do's and Don'ts on HIVE - a short Guide

You should add spam-tagging people to get their attention, that's so annoying, and is actually a sure way to get their attention for the wrong reasons. I don't even like seeing it done in a wholesale manner when it comes to concept, but when individual users do it, not good at all.

Also, on post tags...Using tags that don't relate to the post is misrepresentation in my opinion. The first two or so post tags should relate directly to the topic.

Sort:  

There was a "contest spammer" where I had to ask thrice to stop tagging me in each post, but naturally as most of them they just completely ignore the comments as the point of the post is to profit off of generating these brainless contests while they give away a fraction of the post rewards.

Funny enough after the 3rd ask I started downvoting and it quickly gained their attention and they stopped tagging.

I get the same sometimes, one only just yesterday. I ignore it to a point, then ask not to be tagged, or make a comment about spam tagging. The DV gets used occat too, and is a good way to get someones attention.

Each Monday I tag 6-10 people in my #weekend-engagement favourite posts wrap up...and always sort of cringe when I do it because I don't like tagging people. I guess there's a valid reason for it now and then, but there's certainly an overuse if it also, needless and pointless tagging.

Youre right, there could have been a lot of topics to add, but most are so controversial 🤷 that you cannot make an explanation for newbies out of it.
maybe you could write something about, you have much more people you reach

tags, yes this would something worth a single post, its a jungle for most new users.
Sadly most dont look around learning by watching others behavior

I understand, that's why I put a comment in for those who may scroll down and read it. Youre right, there are many aspects to cover and in the 5+ years I have been around people have gone over and over it.

I may do a post sometime, if I can bring together my thoughts on a few things to consider although there's a few doing it already, and quite well too.
